Kubota L5030HSTC
The Kubota dealer delivered my L5030 today after having them put rear work lights on it. As many know we have had 6 inches of rain and another inch in the past 10 days due to Hurricane Wilma. Anyway, I had to run out to work, so my wife handles the homestead and animals during the day.

The delivery guy shows up with the tractor, driving a dually and gooseneck equipement trailer with the L5030 loaded on the trailer. He pulls off my access road near the wetlands. (Big mistake) Meanwhile his rear wheels start to sink into the muck and wet sand. Normally this particular area is dry, but too much rain has made things a little soggy. My wife looks at him and he states, no problem, once the tractor is off, I should be able to pull out. He get s the tractor off, and is really stuck! My wife tells him no problem, grabs his tow chains off the trailer and proceeds to hook up the drawbar on the tractor with the chains to his tow hooks! The guy is amazed! She jumps in the tractor, puts it into Low gear and pulls him out! Needless to say, I don't think he was going to tell his co-workers that a housewife pulled him out of the mud. My 5 year old daughter asked mommy what she was doing, and the she laughed when mommy told her she was going to get the nice man out of the mud. The poor guy had my wife and toddler amused!

I am just too proud of my wife! And yes, she thinks my tractor is sexy! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Joe, great story. One out of two ain't bad .... I've got a 5030. But that was the easy part - I'd gladly trade it for a woman with that kind of gumption. I agree with KennyV - definitely hang on to both of them!

/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gifWhat a story. Bet the last thing the guy thought of was using YOUR tractor to pull HIM out of the mud. Then he got the shocker when SHE did it. Bet he stopped at the car wash to get the "evidence" off the truck!

She needs to stop into the shop sometime soon and, just loud enough for some of the other guys to hear, ask the driver if the truck was ok after she pulled him out of the mud with HER tractor. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Ain't I a stinker!

Thanks everybody for the replies. Yes, she is a keeper! Now she tells all my friends that it is HER tractor!

I can't wait to go to the dealer and ask him how his truck is doing after my wife pulled him out! I would love to see the look on his face! /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
